The Loyalty long-fingered bat (Miniopterus robustior), also called the Loyalty bent-winged bat, is a bat of the family Miniopteridae that the Mammal Diversity Database records only from New Caledonia, in the Australasian realm. Pierre Revilliod described it in 1914 as Miniopterus australis robustior from Lifou in the Loyalty Islands. The database lists it in Mammal Species of the World of 2005 and gives its IUCN Red List status as Endangered, one of the few Miniopterus species assessed in that category.
